NZ vs IRE, 37th Match Preview

Match 37 of the 2022 T20 World Cup sees New Zealand take on Ireland at the Adelaide Oval on Friday afternoon. New Zealand is top of the group with five points from four games but lost their last match. Ireland has three points on the board and must win this fixture to give themselves a small chance of reaching the semi-finals. With New Zealand enjoying a far stronger net-run rate than England and Australia, a win in this match will be enough to see them progress to the semi-finals. They have an excellent record against Ireland and are heavy favorites. Ireland was unable to follow up their famous win over England with another shock victory over Australia. However, they still have an opportunity to finish in the top two and they will not be afraid of facing New Zealand.

Topmost Picks for NZ vs IRE Dream11 Prediction, 37th Match:

Top Picks – Ireland

• Lorcan Tucker– The number three batter scored 71 not out from 48 balls against Australia and he kept their hopes alive of winning that game when all looked lost.

• Josh Little– The 23 year old bowler went wicketless against Sri Lanka and West Indies but has since returned figures of 2-16 against England and 2-21 against Australia.

Top Picks – New Zealand

• Devon Conway– The left-handed opener has made single figure scores in his last two innings but still has an IT20 average of 51.85 from 28 innings.

• Lockie Ferguson– We have seen quick bowlers flourish during the 2022 T20 World Cup. Irrespective of the surface, genuine pace bowlers like Ferguson will always cause problems.

NZ vs IRE 37th Match Probable winners:

New Zealand have performed to a high standard across all recent World Cups and their team have plenty of experience in these must-win games. They have more quality than Ireland across all positions. Ireland will be full of self-belief ahead of this game against New Zealand and will have nothing to lose. We expect them to play with freedom and to take the attack to the Black Caps. However, New Zealand’s batting line-up is one of the strongest in the competition and we expect them to be too good for Ireland’s bowlers. Overall we are predicting a New Zealand victory. Considering the team combination, New Zealand is expected to win this match.
